...
You must implement the IFotowareMedia interface on a content type that inherits from the Optimizely MediaData class in your solution. This enables additional fields that the add-on uses to maintain synchronization with the original media.
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
public interface IFotowareMedia : IContentData { string Name { get; set; } /// <summary> /// Fotoware alternative text /// </summary> string FotowareAltText { get; set; } /// <summary> /// Fotoware description /// </summary> string FotowareDescription { get; set; } /// <summary> /// Fotoware CDN url /// </summary> string FotowareUrl { get; set; } /// <summary> /// Fotoware Preview CDN url /// </summary> string FotowarePreviewUrl { get; set; } /// <summary> /// Fotoware JSON metadata /// </summary> string FotowareJson { get; set; } /// <summary> /// Fotoware modified date /// </summary> DateTime? FotowareModifiedDate { get; set; } } ``` |
Example implementation of IFotowareMedia
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
[ContentType(GUID = "0A89E464-56D4-449F-AEA8-2BF774AB8730")] [MediaDescriptor(ExtensionString = "jpg,jpeg,jpe,ico,gif,bmp,png")] public class ImageFile : ImageData, IFotowareMedia { [UIHint(UIHint.Textarea)] public virtual string Description { get; set; } public virtual string AltText { get; set; } // IFotowareMedia properties [Display(GroupName = FotowareGroupNames.Fotoware)] public virtual string FotowareUrl { get; set; } [Editable(false)] [Display(GroupName = FotowareGroupNames.Fotoware)] public virtual string FotowarePreviewUrl { get; set; } [UIHint(UIHint.Textarea)] [Editable(false)] [Display(GroupName = FotowareGroupNames.Fotoware)] public virtual string FotowareJson { get; set; } [Editable(false)] [Display(GroupName = FotowareGroupNames.Fotoware)] public virtual DateTime? FotowareModifiedDate { get; set; } [ScaffoldColumn(false)] public string FotowareAltText { get => this.GetPropertyValue(p => p.AltText); set => this.SetPropertyValue(p => p.AltText, value); } [ScaffoldColumn(false)] public string FotowareDescription { get => this.GetPropertyValue(p => p.Description); set => this.SetPropertyValue(p => p.Description, value); } } ``` |
The ModifiedDate property is used to track when the media was last changed in the DAM. The plugin uses it to determine whether to download the media.
Configure TinyMCETin
yMCE
To add a button for inserting media from the DAM, include contentplatform-insert-media in the TinyMCE configuration.
Example of TinyMCE configuration
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
services.Configure<TinyMceConfiguration>(config => { config.Default().AddSetting("extended_valid_elements", "iframe[src|alt|title|width|height|align|name],picture,source[srcset|media|src],span") .AddPlugin( "epi-link epi-image-editor epi-dnd-processor epi-personalized-content preview searchreplace autolink directionality visualblocks visualchars fullscreen image link media template codesample table charmap pagebreak nonbreaking anchor insertdatetime advlist lists " + "wordcount help code") .Toolbar( "bold italic strikethrough forecolor | epi-link image media epi-image-editor epi-personalized-content | contentplatform-insert-media | bullist numlist | searchreplace fullscreen ", "styleselect blocks | alignleft aligncenter alignright alignjustify | removeformat | table toc | code" , ""); }); ``` |
...
The button is added to the default TinyMCE by default, but if you have custom tinys for blocks with other configurations, you can apply the following: .AddFotowareContentPlatformToTinyMCE(serviceCollection)
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
services.Configure<TinyMceConfiguration>(config => config.For<TextHtmlBlock>(t => t.Text) .AddEpiserverSupport() .AddFotowareContentPlatformToTinyMCE(serviceCollection) // This registers the plugin and the settings. .Toolbar(AllSettings); ); ``` |
Apply UIHint and FotowareConfiguration attributes to Optimize properties
...
Example of using the image UIHint
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
[Display(Name = "Content Reference (Optimizely)", GroupName = "Content Reference", Order = 10)] [UIHint(ContentPlatformUiHint.Image)] public virtual ContentReference ContentReferenceOptimizely { get; set; } [Display(Name = "Content Reference (Fotoware)", GroupName = "Content Reference", Order = 20)] [FotowareConfiguration(DisableDefaultMediaSelector = true)] [UIHint(ContentPlatformUiHint.Image)] public virtual ContentReference ContentReferenceFotoware { get; set; } [Display(Name = "Url (Optimizely)", GroupName = "Url", Order = 10)] [UIHint(ContentPlatformUiHint.ImageUrl)] public virtual Url ImageAsUrlOptimizely { get; set; } ``` |
The UIHint attribute can be applied to ContentReference and Url property types.
...
To disable the plugin in the Optimizely Commerce Asset list, set the PreventCommerceEditorIntegration setting to true.
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
"ContentPlatform": {
...
"PreventCommerceEditorIntegration": true
}
``` |
Logging
The plugin has a number of logging information that can be used for information and debugging the integration. Update appsettings.json as the following.
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
"Logging": {
"LogLevel": {
"Fotoware.ContentPlatform.Plugins.Optimizely": "Information"
}
},
``` |
Multiple site configuration
You can configure the plugin to run with Optimizely multi-site scenario by specifying the site ID for each site in the Sites collection in appsettings.json.
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
"ContentPlatform": {
"BaseCdnUrl": "https://optimizely.preview-picturepark.com",
"Sites": [
{
"SiteId": "7e9335f8-2f16-44b0-8870-8f2d4bc0160c",
"RootFolderId": 102,
"EnableOnAllMedia": true,
"DisableDefaultMediaSelector": false,
"DefaultTinyMceImageWidth": 600,
"UseImageCdnUrlInTinyMce": false,
"MediaTypes": [
{
"Name": "Image",
"FileExtensions": ".jpg,.jpeg,.jpe,.gif,.bmp,.png,.gif",
"PreferredDownloadWidth": 1200,
"DownloadContentSelectionName": "Original",
"PreviewContentSelectionName": "Preview"
},
{
"Name": "Video",
"FileExtensions": ".mov,.mp4",
"DownloadContentSelectionName": "VideoSmall",
"PreviewContentSelectionName": "Preview"
},
{
"Name": "Pdf",
"FileExtensions": ".pdf",
"DownloadContentSelectionName": "Original",
"PreviewContentSelectionName": "Preview"
}
]
}
]
}
``` |
SiteId - The ID of the site, which you can find in Admin > Manage Websites.

Fotoware Media imported into Optimizely are organized into a year-month folder structure to facilitate browsing and prevent issues with large media lists in the same folder, which Optimizely doesn't handle well. By default, folders are created based on the year and month when the media was imported. However, you can customize this structure. For example, you could base it on metadata within your solution.
...
2024/
└── 06/
├── image01.jpg
└── video02.mp4
This customization is achieved by implementing the IFolderResolver interface.

Example of how to register event handlers for the Fotoware events in an InitializationModule
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
[ModuleDependency(typeof(InitializationModule))] public class FotowareContentEventsInitializationModule : IInitializableModule { public void Initialize(InitializationEngine context) { var events = context.Locate.Advanced.GetRequiredService<FotowareEvents>(); events.OnContentDownloading += OnContentDownloading; events.OnContentDownloaded += OnContentDownloaded; } public void Uninitialize(InitializationEngine context) { var events = context.Locate.Advanced.GetRequiredService<FotowareEvents>(); events.OnContentDownloading -= OnContentDownloading; events.OnContentDownloaded -= OnContentDownloaded; } private void OnContentDownloading(object sender, FotowareContentEventArgs e) { // Handle content downloaded event here } private void OnContentDownloaded(object sender, FotowareContentEventArgs e) { // Handle content downloaded event here } } ```} |
OnContentDownloading - Raised before downloading a media with the possibility to cancel the action.
